This is our curated edit of the softest purples: airy lilacs, muted mauves and subtle lavender-toned shimmers, all gentle enough for everyday but pretty enough for spring and summer. For a deeper purple, our full purple range runs through to plum, and this sits alongside the wider pastel collection.
Getting even colour from a soft shade
Pastels tend to be sheerer, so build two to three thin coats over a base coat, cured for 60 seconds each and sealed with a top coat. Keep each layer thin for a smooth, even finish, and lean on these soft tones for a delicate French tip or minimalist nail art.
